<\/span>I was goofing around yesterday morning about 9:20 when my phone rang.  It was my mom, asking if I was ready to go.
“Go?” I asked. 
“Yes, to the zoo.  We just realized that neither Deb nor I called you, so we thought we’d better do that now,” she said.  I could hear laughing in the background. 
“Well, I guess I should get ready, then, huh?” I said, thinking through my routine to see what I could dump so as to be ready on time. 
“We’re just leaving Cedarville,” she said, “so you have about 45 minutes!”  
We hung up, and I started my quick “getting ready” routine.<\/p>\n

(Because I know you’re wondering, this zoo visit had<\/span> been discussed on Monday, so I had been aware of it.  But no one called me to verify, and I had gotten consumed with camping preparations, so it had completely slipped my mind.  But I was mostly ready when they arrived, and we headed out for the zoo in Deb’s minivan with me, my parents, and my nieces in tow!)<\/p>\n

Overall, it was a nice trip to the zoo.  Kelly actually walked the entire park (she was pretty beat at the end!), and we saw all the favorites: elephants, rhinos, kangaroos, fishes, and the carousel.  There weren’t tons of people there (the threat of rain is a wonderful thing!), it didn’t really rain at all, and it wasn’t too hot.  Some pictures of our day:<\/p>\n

The wolves (or “doggies) were out: <\/p>\n

The moose were very exciting: <\/p>\n

The carousel was, as always, the biggest hit of the day!<\/div>\n

I made it home about 4:00 and I spent the rest of the day tidying up my house and trying to plan for our camping outing this weekend.  Six of our small group couples (we have a large small group!) will be going for the weekend, so it should be lots of fun.  I have lots of work to do before we leave, though, so off I get to that!  <\/p>\n

Happy Friday!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
